Full merger

The aim of a full merger is to create a new group, different from all the merged parties.

In the event of a merger between cantonal parties of the same canton, the cantonal conference of the new party shall be composed of the delegations appointed by each of the merged parties and approved by their respective cantonal conferences.

When cantonal parties merge to form a new party at the provincial level, the cantonal conferences of the new party constituted shall be those of each merged party, except where there are two or more parties from the same canton in which case the procedure stipulated in the foregoing paragraph shall be followed and the respective provincial conference shall be constituted. The same procedure shall be followed when the merger is between provincial parties of different provinces to form a new national party.

The formation of the new provincial or national conference, as the case may be, shall be carried out by delegations according to the provisions of this Act.
